Good job and +1 from me for support appimage.

I may have to revisit KDevelop. I've given up on Eclipse as it has broken itself on every platform I've ran it on (Mac OS, Linux and Windows). The obvious question is how good is KDevelop for non QT based development? The release notes indicate for example that the analyser is optimized for QT based apps. Generally my interests are Python, C++, Web related files and general text processing.

I use it for web projects using PHP normal CSS and Vanilla or JQuery-ified Javascript.
It runs better than all the electron-based editors, but sadly autocomplete (for Javascript) is limited to "other words I've seen in your open files" instead of true intelligent parsing of the javascript in the project.
I couldn't comment on how it handles typescript, as I haven't tried typescript outside of vs code yet.
It does let you run bash scripts by right click menu in the project pane, so that's pretty nice.
